Bunny Lines Botox in Glendale, CA — Smooth Nose Wrinkles Naturally

Q: Will bunny line Botox change my nose shape?

No — bunny line Botox relaxes the nasalis muscle movement, not the structural shape of the nose. Your nose cartilage, bone, and overall appearance remain completely unchanged.

Q: Can bunny line Botox affect my smile?

When performed by an experienced injector using appropriate dosing and technique, bunny line Botox should not affect your smile. Precise placement and conservative dosing are critical, and at Elevate Aesthetics we take specific precautions to avoid any impact on lip movement.

Q: Why did my bunny lines get worse after frown line Botox?

This is a common compensatory pattern. When the corrugator and procerus muscles are relaxed with glabellar Botox, the face can recruit the nasalis as an alternative scrunching muscle. Adding a small dose of bunny line Botox at the same appointment prevents this compensation.

What are bunny lines and how Botox treats them at Elevate Aesthetics Glendale

What Are Bunny Lines? How Does Botox Treat Them?

Bunny lines — the diagonal wrinkles that appear on either side of the nose bridge when you scrunch, laugh, or smile — form from the contraction of the nasalis muscle. While they can look charming in youth, they often deepen over time into lines visible even at rest. At Elevate Aesthetics in Glendale, Botox for bunny lines is a quick, precise treatment that softens these nose-bridge wrinkles without affecting your natural expressions or overall nose appearance.

Bunny lines are caused by the nasalis muscle — a broad, flat muscle covering much of the nose that contracts when you scrunch your nose, laugh hard, or crinkle your face during intense expression. In some patients, bunny lines become more prominent after glabellar Botox, as the nasalis can be recruited as a compensatory muscle.

How Bunny Lines Botox Works

Botox targets the nasalis muscle by blocking acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, reducing the muscle's ability to contract forcefully during nose scrunching. With the muscle at rest, the overlying skin smooths and existing bunny lines soften. The treatment uses very small doses (4–8 units total) at 1–2 injection points per side.

Bunny Lines vs. Nose Tip Botox

Bunny lines treatment targets the nose bridge using the nasalis muscle. Nose tip Botox (depressor septi nasi treatment) targets the very tip of the nose to prevent drooping during smiling. These are distinct treatments with different injection points. Some patients benefit from both.

Your injector observes your nasalis contraction pattern, assesses whether bunny lines are a primary concern or a compensatory pattern from existing glabellar treatment, and determines the appropriate dose and injection points.

Topical Numbing (Optional)

Bunny line injections are among the most comfortable Botox treatments. Most patients need no numbing. Ice is available for those with sensitivity.

Precise Injection

1–2 injection points per side are used to relax the nasalis. Treatment takes under 10 minutes. The dose is intentionally conservative to avoid unwanted lip movement changes.

Bunny Lines Botox FAQs — Glendale, CA

Answers to common questions about bunny lines Botox, dosing, and results.

How many units are needed for bunny lines?

Bunny lines require a small dose — typically 4–8 units total (2–4 per side). The nasalis is a thin, superficial muscle and responds quickly to low doses. Over-treating can affect upper lip elevation, so conservative dosing is important.
